Here's what's going on.

K-Drama King The Land had a rough beginning. Many people thought that the show was too predictable and had bad writing.

After the third episode, the number of people who watched it went up, as people got used to its "2000s K-Drama" quirks.

King the Land is finally hitting its stride as it gets close to the halfway point. From June 26 to July 2, 2023, it was watched legally by 4,000,000 different people on Netflix alone.

It was also watched for a total of 24,500,000 hours. This made it the best show on Netflix that wasn't in English.

Not only that, but it was number one in seven countries, including Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, and Vietnam.

In 24 other countries, it stayed in the top 10 as well. Episode 6 had a local rating of 12% for people who didn't watch it on Netflix.

The people of Korea had nothing but good things to say about the show.

It's a lot of fun. The leads look good and get along well too.

I'm telling you, it's so much fun. Congrats!

Oh, good job! Things are getting more interesting.

It seems like everything that theqoo hates at first does well in the end. How funny LOL.

Wow.

So many kids acted like if this became famous, it would be the end of the world. The show seems to be going well.

How good is it? Should I watch it?

The fifth and sixth episodes were hilarious. I usually watch it on Netflix, but it looks like I'll have to start watching it live starting this week. I really like Cheon Sa Rang and Gu Won.

They make good jokes and are cute.

Since the show has a lot of fans, it's only a matter of time before it breaks even more records for how many people watch it.

Former S.E.S member Shoo (Yoo Soo Young) warmed hearts as she shared a touching moment with her twin daughters—taking them to the same wholesale market where she once worked during a difficult time in her life.

On May 8, Shoo posted several photos on Instagram showing her spending time with her twin daughters, Ra Hee and Ra Yul, at the Dongdaemun wholesale market. In the caption, she wrote, “Did everyone enjoy the holiday? I feel like I made a memory I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”

The photos showed Shoo and her daughters smiling brightly while eating and shopping together. Her daughters, now visibly grown up, were even seen wearing similar shoes and clothes as their mom.

Shoo opened up about a painful chapter in her past. “When I was struggling, I once sold clothes I got from Dongdaemun with the help of a friend,” she shared. “I used to go there from night to early morning, picking up fleece clothes, hairpins, and shoes, thinking, ‘My kids would love this if I brought them here.’”

Now that her daughters are older, Shoo finally fulfilled that dream. “We laughed so much while shopping. We bought hairpins, socks, and clothes together,” she said. “They’ve grown so much—they can even wear the same things as me.”

Reflecting on the experience, she added, “Memories of my past flashed before my eyes. I told them how I used to work late at night, carrying heavy bags and walking around for 10 hours straight.”

Shoo emotionally concluded, “I was so happy to show my kids the nighttime world I once worked in.”

Fans who remember Shoo’s twins from The Return of Superman were touched to see how much they’ve grown. Shoo, now a proud mom of three, continues to update fans through her TV appearances and social media, showing her strength as both a mother and former idol.
